Over a week ago a neighbor asked me for prayer, and I prayed right then and there. I don't believe in the idea when someone asks you for prayer and your response is I will put you on a prayer list. If time permits when that is asked of me I pray right then and there with the person asking for prayer. This is in regard to a health concern. I received an update this past Monday of what is going on medical wise, and I felt led to go to a local store in search of a possible gift to lift up this neighbor's spirit and let her know I care and am standing in faith with her. I found an "angel of healing" figurine by the Willow something brand, but it was already tagged for an estate sale to take place the Thursday of the same week since it was already advertised. I took my chance and waited until Thursday after work and went to see if it was still available for purchase. On Tuesday there was a grouping of this particular brand of angel figurines and now there were only 2 displayed since the others were already purchased. From the distance I thought it was it and sure enough when I got closer it was 1 of the 2 displayed. I scooped it up and shared on Tuesday how I was looking for a gift for a woman that is a prayerful woman to bless her.
I take it to the counter and share a bit about my neighbor and her age and how I heard her medical news, and I wanted to bless her. Without even giving a name the couple knew her, and she attends their church. I shared how she asked me for prayer for a luncheon she was attending and they asked her to recite scripture she knows by heart and has memorized. So, I inquired if she did that and did quote the scripture at the luncheon, and they replied she did. Guess what happened next. The owner insisted I pay nothing for this angel figurine since they knew who I was I giving it to. I said but you will not make money if you give it away. They responded it was their property and could do what they want with it, meaning give it away as opposed to selling it. I was amazed and then left the store in search of a sweet treat since she enjoys her desserts, and I found one at Publix. Since it was from an estate sale, I prayed over the object to break any ungodly type of soul ties possibly connected to it and I anointed it with hyssop scented anointing oil. I placed the 2 items in a gift bag along with a note stating I stand in agreement with her for Psalm 118:17: "I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord." I delivered the care package to her the next day.
The same day I promised another neighbor that when I picked up my birthday bonus from Publix I would give it to her. I kept a quart sized Green Wise brand of chocolate truffle ice cream in my freezer and delivered it to her after I distributed the other gift.
God is faithful, God is true and above all else He is a loving and just God. He will not be mocked, and justice is right around the corner. I would repent if there were anything in your life that needs repentance from before Jesus comes to claim His people. You must follow the leading of Holy Spirit and not manmade type of spirits so to speak. Quit following the voices of others trying to get you to do what they want you to do as opposed to what Holy Spirit is speaking to you in your heart. I have learned that not everyone that gives the appearance of helping you out or guiding you is truly sincere. They have their own agenda, and it is not to advance you or your ministry but to advance their agenda or ministry. Quit being so gullible and let them talk. If they talk long enough it will truly expose their own agenda being used to be fulfilled at the cost of your ministry. Oh, they may say they do it with joy. Sure, because the joy is them being advanced at the expense of another. Are ministers so blinded by flattery today that they take the bait of satan through the guise of one calling themself a Christian. You better really seek the Lord in whom you are allowing yourself to be surrounded by and clean up the house/ministry. Some may be flattering you oh perhaps to cover up theft within the ministry as an example. Maybe covering up sexual sins in their lives or the minster them self is stealing from the ministry and employees know about it and that is their stronghold over the minister to keep them in line with their plan and threaten them they will expose if they don't follow their demands.
Wow, where did all that just come from? I would imagine Holy Spirit. I was reading scripture today and in this particular passage it stated 2 times how to share the miracles God has done in your life so let me share one now if I may. It was Christmas many years ago and it was shortly after my father died and went to be with Jesus. At the time I had a Dodge Caravan and just before the exit of where we would get off to go see my dad we had a tire blow out. That never happened to me before and no sooner did that happen. A black man pulled up in front of us on the berm of the highway and said no one should be stranded or have a flat tire on Christmas. He changed the tire and put on the spare tire right while we were still in the van. I probably had just a few dollars on me at the time and offered to pay him and he responded no, that is what he does. The next thing you know him and his car were gone. Before he left, I noticed a license plate type of sign in the back window on the left side that said God is my co-pilot. You will never ever ever convince me it was not an angel that was sent to help us. We were a few minutes late for dinner but when I shared the story my mother was not mad. Oh, we did not just live around the corner from where my mother lived, we were about 1 hours' drive away. So, along the highways we took to get there at any point that tire could have blown out, but it was right then and there by my father's exit on the highway it happened. I led my dad to Jesus 3 weeks before he died and that is how I know he is in heaven and one day we will see each other again. Praise the Lord. Amen.
The last day I saw the hummingbirds in my area this year was 10/2/2024. Will miss them as they journey to their winter destination with the bright hope of seeing them return next year. I will have the homemade nectar and feeders waiting for them at that time.
